How NOT to sell a product! ** ICQ Log **
 

Just got this ICQ msg, and this is what took place. Do rep's even bother to make things personal anymore? At least take note of who you are speaking to!

[17:25] Salesman Guy: hello
[17:25] Sherm: hi there
[17:26] Salesman Guy: you work with a network?
[17:26] Sherm: um... not sure what you mean
[17:26] Salesman Guy: you own any sites?
[17:27] Sherm: yes i do. what kind of sites are you looking for?
[17:27] Salesman Guy: any... let me introduce myself....
[17:27] Salesman Guy: I run a publicly traded technology company, Interaccurate, Inc. under our parent company Commerce Planet
[17:27] Salesman Guy: we're an online media company
[17:27] Salesman Guy: i have a simulated live chat technology. it's an exit pop that works to recover and convert orders on a CPA basis
[17:28] Salesman Guy: www.myonlinechat.com
[17:28] Salesman Guy: I'm looking to do business together
[17:29] Sherm: but you don't know what sites I run, so how do you know? How'd you find my contact info?
[17:30] Salesman Guy: sorry... don't mean to startle you.
[17:31] Salesman Guy: I got you from gfy.com
[17:31] Sherm: didn't startle me.. I just don't understand how a person wants to do business with me without researching :)
[17:32] Salesman Guy: I know.. it's strange... but my technology is awesome.. and there is no risk associated with it..
[17:32] Salesman Guy: Here a link to one of my clients: https://www.financebox.com/mortgage/
[17:33] Salesman Guy: when the page loads... exit the window
[17:33] Salesman Guy: and you get a chat bot... that's us...
[17:33] Sherm: I'm sorry. I'm sure it is, but first impressions are key. I'm not currently seeking any live chat solutions, nor am I popping consonles
[17:33] Sherm: consoles
[17:34] Sherm: best of luck with your product. in the future, try researching leads a bit better so that you know how to target your webmaster in question.
[17:35] Sherm: Cheers. :)
[17:35] Salesman Guy: sure... You should really check it out. It's going to change the industry
[17:35] Salesman Guy: regards

That's just nuts mate!:thumbsup

Why the hate? You never complained about me before.

Pop up chat consoles are going to change the industry?

Fuck, call me unprepared.

"It's going to change the industry"

Best line ever... can someone print that on a mug for me?

changing the industry..one flash loader at a time

LOL, going to change the industry. Unfortunately i don't see it working in this industry, mainstream, sure, not adult.

Hands up those who sale short ICQ.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

here's how it would work:

CHATBOT: Wait! Don't close that window!
SURFER: Huh?
CHATBOT: Don't put your dick back in your pants just yet! Let me tell you about all the great pussy pictures we offer!
SURFER: Go away

But, It's Going to CHANGE THE INDUSTRY!

What were you thinking turning him down? I want his contacts!

I have a personal ban on "Regards". It's much too indian for my taste. "Best regards" is even worse. They should make spam filters watch for it.

I tend to answer with "relatively better regards" or "slightly worse regards"

PS: My post is not an invitation to solicit me over ICQ.
Thank you
WG

Dude. You're on the internet!? I'm on the internet too! Let's do business!

Reminds me of that Seinfeld episode when they were selling the show "Business !! Let's do business ! Business ! Sure ! Business!!"

Amanda Says: Who am I chatting with?
You Say: sexyboy12
Amanda Says: I would prefer to keep to the topic at hand.
Amanda Says: Who am I chatting with?

Don't you want to do business though?
What's your name again? :1orglaugh

rofllllll !!

an adult exit bot would be funny

I'm still really mad at Sherm for getting me hooked on silly t-shirts... it's like an addiction. But I hope I was nicer when I hit him up asking him to put my feeds in his members areas.

The cam industry has been doing this for a while.

I added it to a site, it converted about 1:800 on exit consoles .. which I considered amazing. Paid out $5,000-$8,000 per month, usually, which was a nice little bonus for adding a small pop.

oh boy.......

You handled that really well, Sherm.

Something else that is going to change the industry, amazing

cold calling on icq, ive seen it all now

Thanks Jay :)
As I was speaking to him, all that ran through my mind was 'WWJD'....What Would Jay Do

:1orglaugh:thumbsup

i already saw that on the exit of a paysite of one of the big programs
its a thing im willing to experiment with
